I had the pleasure of knowing Ben and his lovely late wife Dot for quite a few years. My daughters, Karley and Tahlia, worked for them in the ice cream van, and we all had so much fun at the races, having a flutter on the racehorses. These rich memories will be in our hearts forever. Ben was such a lovely man with a heart of gold, and I know Colleen and the family will miss him deeply. Sending our condolences and heartfelt sympathy for your loss.

Goodbye dear Ben thank you for all the precious memories we shared as a part of your family the Gallanagh - Sloot Clan. Give dad a hug from me and say hi to Dot.. My deepest sympathy Col and Roby xxxx Denise
A beautiful send off for Ben . Loved the history of the many years of hard work with great success . You were all a great team. My memories are of your young years in Oceon Grove . Nursing in Melb meant I could have many weekends with you . Loving the beech . I would liked to have joined you today . Lisa’s Husband Rob ‘s father passed away this week which then meant we had 2 Funerals today. One in Auckland & one in the west . Decided then to watch both on line . Much love to you all! Jim & Julia .
A beautiful and touching ceremony to celebrate the courageous and loving life of Ben. He was a lovely man, full of enthusiasm and conversation and that's how I'll always remember him. Our deepest condolences xoxo.

Dear Colleen,Robyn and Bernhard, It is only today(10 March) that we heard of Ben's passing. We're sorry for your loss. We wish you great strength to get through these difficult times. We have fond memories of Ben and Dot during our Australian holidays. Ben was a great guy, what a character, but we had even more laughs with Dot. Her sense of humour just floored us. It is a pity we are so far away from you in Holland, but you are in our memories and so are Ben and Dot. We wish you all the best. Marleen and Hans from Maastricht,Holland. P.S. We're having a nice drink (Irish whiskey and white wine) on your health.
